In this study, the experiment was conducted on a fire door(W × H = 0.98 m × 2.19 m) installed on the vestibule. The effective leakage area for each opening angles and closing forces derived from the impulse-momentum equation was compared and analyzed with the experimental results. As a result of the experiment, the major factors affecting the door closing forces were the pressure difference and the area of the door. The difference of door closing forces between measured and calculated values by the impulse-momentum equation showed a deviation of less than ±15% at the opening angles of 5°to 10°. At the door opening angle of 2.5°, the dynamic pressure was much higher than the measured static pressure, and this pressure difference is estimated to be air resistance acting to prevent the door from being completely closed.

To understand differences of environmental factors and planktonic communities in closed (CS) versus open (OS) enclosed experimental systems, we performed a study on a 100-L indoor- type artificial marine microcosm. For environmental factors, including water temperature, dissolved inorganic phosphorus, and dissolved silica, there were no significant differences between CS and OS; however, salinity was higher in CS than that of OS due to the evaporation effect. The concentration of dissolved oxygen and dissolved inorganic nitrogen was lower in CS than in OS. The abundance of phytoplankton was lower in CS than in OS. However, abundance of autotrophic nanoflagellates and heterotrophic bacteria varied inversely with that of phytoplankton abundances. In particular, the abundance of heterotrophic nanoflagellates and ciliates increased with bacterial growth after a time lag. Therefore, environmental factors and planktonic communities in CS gradually changed over time and characterized a different artificial ecosystem than in OS.

인삼은 반음지성 식물로 해가림을 위해 지붕 및 벽에 해가림막 시설이 필요하다. 하지만 해마다 강해지는 강풍이나 태풍으로 인해 많은 농가시설물이 피해를 입고 있으며, 특히 인삼재배시설의 경우 시설물이 길게 하나로 연결되어 있어 피해가 크다. 이러한 피해를 방지하기 위해서는 인삼재배시설에 가해지는 풍하중을 평가하여 그것에 견딜 수 있도록 내풍설계를 해야 한다. 이 연구에서는 관행식과 후주연결식 인삼재배시설의 구조골조에 대한 풍하중을 산정하기 위해 필요한 지붕 및 벽 해가림막의 순압력계수를 풍동실험을 통해 정량적으로 평가하였다. 이 연구결과는 인삼재배시설에 대한 내풍설계의 기초자료가 될 것이다.
